Fitness Center
It’s well documented that physically active adults feel better, heal better and enjoy life more. That’s why we hope you’ll be a regular visitor to our fully equipped fitness center. YMCA staffed personal trainers are always on duty to help you find appropriate activities, offer advice and encouragement and make sure that you stay safe. You’ll be able to participate in exercise classes, enjoy our lifeguard-staffed indoor pool and relax in our luxurious hot tub to soak away those aches and pains.
Matters of the Spirit
At Monroe Village, we know that spirituality is important to overall good health. You’ll have regular opportunities to share worship services with your friends and neighbors both here in the community and at nearby houses of worship. Monroe Village's own Chaplain Terry Thomas Primer has been exploring the ways that creative arts connect to the spiritual journey. Drawing on her skills as a quilter, she has helped to present a course that explores creativity in older adults.
